England didn't become part of the Empire. England was the Empire. All of the other nations in Britain were conquered by England. Scotland managed to stay independent for most of the time by the Scotlish King paying Liege to the King of England. In 1602, English Queen, Elizabeth I, died and her Heir was her nephew JamesVI of Scotland. So James became King James I of England and the two countries have had the same Monarch since. About 100 years later, Scotland sold its independance to England in exchange for paying off its massive international debts. Hence, with the act of union, the United Kingdom was born. The UK continued to conquer lands (and occasionally lose a the odd insignificant bit, like the USA). Strictly speaking, this massive Empire was not an Empire because it had no Emperor. Then, in the mid 1800s, Britain took control of India and Queen Victoria was named as Empress of India. The Empire now had an imperial head.
